@ Angel: I´ve never seen that. I think it´s very rare.
I´d go for it (especially cos I love "Titanic" very much).
Is it good? What year has it been released (or delivered, as a promo)?
Are these own mixes or remixes by other artists, DJs etc.?

Let see if I can show it here, scanned the back of the sleeve.

Wow, Angel! And thanks! I´m gonna look for that here.

it still makes me think of it and I must say that I just feel like the song
No time for revolution
is VERY underrated, can't help myself.

New album & DVD "Symphonic" !!!

Back in '94 Falco did a legendary big concert accompanied by a huge orchestra and a choir in Vienna in front of 10.000 people.
Everybody was curious about a record of it, especially after he had died. All excerpts I had seen were
overwhelming.
Unfortunately the way they had recorded it made it an auditive disaster.

So, in time to the 10th anniversary of Falco's death on 6th of February, they release it after a struggle of
production work I assume. Because Thomas Rabitsch, the former musical director and live keyboarder of Falco from the very beginning, who also had produced the excellent "Verdammt wir leben noch"-album,
extracted Falco's voice and polished it to a diamond and put it to the choir and orchestral tracks he
had recorded - again!
As the previews say it surprisingly sounds fantastic, funky and outstanding!
Among the experts this one is praised like if he had raised from the grave.
Journalists are writing things like "Falco's voice is flirting with the orchestra", engineers say "This is a kind
of perfection that really shows what's possible today", fans at amazon...find it out!
To get a chance to compare, there will be also three or four of the original "bad" tracks as a bonus.
Can't wait to get it.

Cheers.

Wooohoooo!! Me to!!!

Gotta correct myself about a detail: The CD bonus tracks are not from the original disastrous recordings,
but a teaser for the DVD stuff (and they sound lovely I tell you!).
The normal CD tracks - contrarily to the DVD - obviously hardly feature any live material, but various
studio vocal tracks. Anyway: It sounds fantastic! [jump2]
You can tell by these releases that somebody close to Falco was responsible for the work.
On the backside of the cover are the words
"Mit großer Verbeugung vor einem großen Künstler
Thank you Falco
Danke Hans"
(With a big bow to a big artist. Thank you Falco. Danke Hans)
Says it all.

Falco did get plenty of air time on Much Music in the day and we appreciated that administrative decision. I agree that he was far ahead of his time with the synth/rap. His voice, the music and awesome videos rocked us Amadeus and always will. We miss him so very much.
